PhD Plant and Crop Sciences
Course Overview
This postgraduate research program offers a world-class opportunity to delve into plant and crop science, focusing on both fundamental molecular mechanisms and applied agronomic performance. You will conduct independent research on globally significant crops, from wheat and rice to tomatoes, with the goal of improving crop quality and resilience. The program is supported by a large, multinational team of experts and extensive training to develop your professional research skills.
Key Program Highlights
- Conduct in-depth research on major global crops (e.g., wheat, rice, tomato) and underutilized species to address food security challenges.
- Investigate the entire spectrum from molecular gene networks in model plants to crop performance in field conditions.
- Study critical plant interactions with their environment, including pathogens and beneficial microbes.
- Receive dedicated supervisory support with frequent contact and a minimum of 10 formally recorded meetings per year.
- Access specialized project-related training and optional masters-level modules to enhance your research and professional skills.
